In the Cathedral of the Sea, we honoured Queen Elizabeth II with the Laying Up of The Queen’s Colours.
Her Late Majesty was the daughter, wife and mother of naval officers. The @RoyalNavy ran like a thread throughout her life.
Today, we said our final farewell.

✈️ Dambusters on deck. Next stop: the High North.
617 Squadron, the Dambusters, are embarked aboard HMS Prince of Wales, bringing F-35B carrier airpower to the UK Carrier Strike Group as it continues national and NATO operations across the North Atlantic.
Supporting Arctic Sentry, the deployment strengthens Allied presence, extends operational reach and reinforces NATO’s ability to deter and defend across the region.

#OnThisDay 221 yrs ago in 1805 @RoyalNavy was successful in defeating the Franco-Spanish Fleet at #Trafalgar confirming British superiority of the seas. Lord Nelson died before the end, having done his duty, handing over Command to another great commander Admiral Collingwood.

A privilege to be at @DartmouthBRNC chapel for Trafalgar Day. At 4:15pm, the time Nelson died aboard HMS Victory in 1805, sunlight through a small round window cast a stone sun-cross onto the figure of Christ behind the High Altar. Unforgettable. #TrafalgarDay @SimonBodminCox

#OTD in 1805, the Royal Navy defeated the combined forces of France and Spain at Trafalgar.
The tactical brilliance, professionalism, technology and training which underpinned Adm Lord Nelson’s stunning victory have driven and shaped the Navy ever since.

⚓ Carrier strike returns to the High North.
Led by HMS Prince of Wales, the UK Carrier Strike Group 🇬🇧 has returned to sea for national and NATO operations across the North Atlantic and High North.
As part of Arctic Sentry and NATO’s Neptune Strike series, the group brings together air, surface and subsurface capabilities to strengthen Allied presence, protect vital sea lines of communication and reinforce NATO’s ability to deter and defend across the region.
Carrier strike. Allied presence. Arctic ready.

A powerful intervention from the head of the Army. Something is coming, and government needs to wake up.
He says the public will have to make sacrifices so we can prioritise defence and security.
This is no time for “national security can’t come at the expense of social security”. Hard choices are coming whether ministers like it or not.
I have been clear where I would start: cut welfare spending and put the money into defence.

⏰The head of the @BritishArmy has just delivered a massive wake-up call to his troops - and the whole of the UK - about the gathering storm.
Please read or watch ⬇️
General Sir Roly Walker tells his soldiers: "You didn’t know this but our nation is going to need you.
"Very soon the political leaders of this country will start to have a frank conversation with the citizens of this country about just what is going on and where the risk lies.
"They are going to try and explain to our citizens that our citizens have got to consent to sacrifices to prioritise defence and security.
"And then they are going to ask those citizens, to whom we are not necessarily at the front of their mind, that they too need to play a part in the defence and security of this country.
"They need to understand what we do for them.
"They need to consent to allow us to do that, which means sacrifices by them.
"And ultimately we are going to need them to back us, to back you to do the one thing that you do that noody else gets to do and that is to take the fight to the enemy."
